That is another way of doing it as Bullet says ,water presure fills it up very fast .there is norm an over flow fitting at the side from the top of the tank for when the tank is full , just about every ski boat here in the uk has one like this .and gravaty drain which works of a three way valve .pipe size is norm 0ne inch bore. regards paul
I did get side tracked looking at ribs, and reading petrol...cheers....cheerio.....kilometers..... What are you guys talking about??

Nothing yet. Ill most likely be going with a sm pickup coming off the tab to fill it using psi. Bilge pump to dump.

Just curious what the final solution was/is going to be?
Would water pressure alone force water out of a bilge pump outlet, past the bilge pump once the tank filled up? Or would you need a seperate overflow? You would need a breather hose anyhow, so I suppose the breather would double as the overflow....
